Dueling the greatest fencer in the kingdom wouldn’t have been your first choice, but it’s the only one you have if you don’t want to end up in the gallows. You are to prove your innocence through Trial of Combat.

Thankfully you called in a favor to one of the town’s swordsmiths. With a brand new Trident Dagger, you might actually stand a chance. But then again, as you watch the fencer unsheath his rapier and give it a casual flourish, you still feel a small tremor of fear in your grip.
